Lip Blush (also known as Lip Tattoo or Permanent Lipstick) is a professional cosmetic and aesthetic procedure that uses a machine similar to a tattoo machine to implant colour pigment (of the client's choice) into the dermis of the lips, resulting in fuller and more defined looking lips.
Lip blushing is a form of semi-permanent tattoo or makeup where people are looking to rejuvenate the color of their lip border or the actual substance of the lip.
It is not uncommon as we age to lose the pigment, particularly women, in their lips and lip lines. With loss of color and lip definition, a lot of women use lip liner to accommodate this and to make the lips look slightly bigger.
SEMI PERMANENT LIP BLUSH IN MILTON KEYNES
Our lip blushing treatment is about making your lips even, creating the illusion of volume and ensuring that the colour stays put in any situation so that all you need to do is add a dab of lip gloss and you’re good to go! The lip blush treatment is the perfect way to restore shape and fullness lost with age and transform thin or uneven lips. A tint is selected from a range of our fabulous shades and this can be as subtle or dramatic as you desire – either blending subtly with your natural lip colour or matching your favourite cosmetic lip colour.
TYPES OF LIP BLUSH
Not sure which lips would suit you best? The below shows the most common 3 types, but a consultation prior to your appointment will enable us to advise the best option to suit you and your requirements.
SHEER LIP BLUSH
HD LIPS
DARK LIPS NEUTRALISATION
A very soft tint of colour throughout the lips for a natural wash of definition. No harsh borders or outlines and is very natural-looking. Suits everyone with lighter lips wanting a natural result.
This is our most popular lip treatment; we define the lip border and cupids bow and then add a wash of custom blended colour to the lip but without the obvious lip border that can look outdated. Full saturation of colour to achieve high definition with longer lasting 'lipstick' effect
Clients with darker pigmented lips typically Fitzpatrick 4-6 may need Neutralisation - which is the process of using colour theory to lighten and brighten the dark lip tissue. This is the same process as Sheer & HD but more than 2 sessions may be required with more healing time.
SEMI PERMANENT LIP BLUSH AT GALLERY MEDISPA
Gallery Medispa's lip blush options are all veyr suble and natural. Whether choosing sheer lips, HD lips or dark lips neutralising, all of our lip blushing can be viewed as enhancing what you have rather than changing or covering up. At Gallery Medispa in Milton Keynes we do not offer lip line only treatments as this is often regretted by the client months down the line. This treatment subtly makes the best of the lips you do have.
Sheer Lips
Sheer lips is a form of lip blushing that blends the color of your choice into the lips in a soft airbrushed effect similar to a lip tint. It doesn’t define the edges of the lips as much as other techniques do. In fact, that’s what differentiates sheer lips from regular lip blushing.
The sheer lip blush doesn’t outline the lips into a defined shape, but rather gives the illusion of wearing no makeup, as if your lips are naturally that color. This is achieved by a shaded, blended edge that’s less saturated in color than the center of the lips.
The sheer lips technique implies a soft blending of color into the lips, so the color is built up in several passes to achieve the blurred, airbrushed effect. Depending on your wishes, the PMU artist will saturate different areas of the lips more or less.
The results are less opaque than with full lip color, so it won’t completely hide the texture of your lips, but rather enhance them. Clever shading can give the illusion of fuller lips and make their shape look more symmetrical.
HD Lip Blush
This is our most popular lip treatment; we define the lip border and cupids bow and then add a wash of custom blended colour to the lip but without the obvious lip border that can look outdated.
We blend a pigment that will be the most flattering to your skin tone and the type of shade that you prefer. We then draw the lip template, making the lips more even in shape and as full as possible. Due to new techniques, the colour is lightly implanted using very fine needles, this is not only far more comfortable for the client but also give a modern look of a ‘tint’ rather than the outdated lipstick look of previous years. This treatment leaves the lips looking fuller, more youthful and without the need for lipstick.
Dark Lip Neutralisation
Often our lips can be pigmented from sun damage, smoking or external factors. Some of us simply have lips that naturally have a purple, blue or brown hue.
Until recently, we have been unable to make these lips more uniform but with the new techniques, we are now able to neutralise even the most heavily pigmented lips.
We use colour charts to assist us in neutralising the lips for example, if your lips have a purple hue, we would use an orange neutraliser to correct. Don’t worry! You won’t end up with orange lips, the orange simply neutralises the purple tone and will heal a soft nude/pink.
During the healing process, your lips may look patchy but you are able to cover with lipstick after 7 days.
*Neutralisation may take more sessions than a regular lip blush, 2 sessions are included in the price, further sessions would be chargeable.
